Compared to men, women have a higher cardiovascular risk due to hypertension, dyslipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, obesity, physical inactivity, and a sedentary lifestyle. Plus, they have additional sex-specific cardiovascular risk factors such as gestational hypertension\u002Fdiabetes, preterm delivery, premature menopause, and polycystic ovary syndrome.\n\nCardiovascular rehabilitation (CR) is a Class I, level A, clinical practice guideline recommendation, multidisciplinary secondary prevention program that has been shown to reduce cardiovascular mortality, rehospitalization, and improve quality of life. Despite all established benefits, CR continues to be under referred to women compared to men, with lower enrolment rates and lower adherence to exercise sessions. The reasons for the underuse of CR by women and the main barriers have been widely studied. Thus, sex-specific implementation strategies have been developed to improve adherence, however, the efficacy claims of these interventions are equivocal, as some studies revealed no significative difference regarding adherence between different exercise delivery modes and mixed-sex programs, whereas others revealed greater preference towards women-only programs.\n\nFew randomized controlled trials (RCT) examined the efficacy of CR programs tailored to women in adherence, enrolment, functional capacity, physical activity, body composition, and quality of life. Importantly, to the investigators knowledge, no RCTs used counselling sessions, women-focused educational sessions, personalized follow-ups and supervised exercise sessions as adherence strategies in maintenance CR community programs.\n\nThe goal of this RCT is to test whether a women-focused maintenance CR community program increases adherence compared to a standard care. Thus, the investigators hypothesized that:\n\n• The women-focused group will have greater adherence to the CR community program (main outcome)\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Be assessed at baseline, at 3-months and at 6-months\n* Enrol in a supervised community-based maintenance CR program\n* Receive individually prescribed exercise sessions (both groups), a tailored package consisting of individual counselling sessions and educational sessions (women-focused group)",[98],"Cardiovascular Diseases",[100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108],"Secondary Prevention","Phase III","Personalized","Physical activity counselling","Supervised","Exercise training","Women","Goal-oriented","Long Term","2025-01-24",{"date":111,"type":112},"2025-01-28","ACTUAL",{"date":114,"type":112},"2024-10-08",{"date":116,"type":92},"2027-04",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
